Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 16, 2013

This has a lot of promise. Let Marty get a whiff of dissension, and he’ll run with it!

What is that cylinder in panel two????

Why in the back of P3 is the guy playing catch over the fence?

From high atop the MHS Media Center (Tinderbox), Moonpie is in supreme command, transmitting from his 20 watt mobile unit. P2 has been played more times than the missing Thorp kids references.

When are the playdowns? Can’t wait.

So after dragging on forever to get through the first 3 games of the year all of a sudden we zoom ahead to the end of the season. I wonder how we are doing? First place? Last place? Who knows?

I didn’t realize that high school radio broadcasters (I’m sure there are 1000s of them) keep an eye on such important school records such as most double plays turned by a second baseman and shortstop combo.

When did Marty start asking permission to do interviews?Duh Kaz don’t you know what Marty is capable of?

Anyone remember Doug Carson or Jerry Welch? I don’t.

The season rolls on? This sounds like a lame way of saying I have no idea what to do with this storyline.

Have Mop – you’d be surprised what records high schools track these days. They’re taking their cue from the ESPN “Most Strikeouts by a Left-Handed Pitcher of Central European Extraction in an Odd-Numbered Day Game” stat crew.

Bily Goat – The player in P3 is obviously getting a foul ball back from a random little kid…didn’t you ever shag fouls?

P1: Right cross takes out sliding player before he can tag.

Anticipating that this story line is near dead, now heading to Milford CC, but I am very pleased that we were given ample opportunities today to get our game back on!

P3- Moon looking a little like Rod Serling’s devil from “Howling Man” but wearing a Fila/Nina Cerutti 1980’s shirt. Nice wide watchband as well.

..NINO Cerutti, that is…

This strip needs Moon to start stirring the $hit can. I want to see a fight with someone getting injured.

What’s this baseball junk? I want a peacock.

Uh oh, nothing but trouble with Moon entering the picture. I predict an on-the-air fight which will go viral after Moon posts it to YouTube.

Has anybody notice that when Marty Moon is in the strip that a lot more comments are made. Way to go Marty.
